How Needles Are Made.

According to the most recent esti-
mates, the present production OF needles
in Rsdditch, England, is not less than
100000 600 per week, and. as may be in
ferred from this enormous aggregate.
machinery has been brought to bear
upon the trade in a most exteusive de-
gree and with marked success. The
pointing Of needles, one OF the most
delicate of all operations, is now al
most exclusively done bY machinery,
and SO Is the cutting, skImming, stamp
ing, cycling, temperiug, counting, head
ing and failing, blueing, furnishing.
finishing, asserting and sticking. New
and improved machines for all these
processes have been successfully intro
duced during the last 20 years or so,
and, unlike the experience in other
trades, the machine work about needles
is not only cheaper but better. The
latest novelty, and one which Is a pro-
nounced success, is the growing ma
chine for making sewing machine
needles, the old stamping process being
thereby superseded. Work done by the
"grooving" machine is better and
truer, beside being more economi ic.,l.
The old process Of either gliding has
been almost entirely superseded by ths
newer and improved method Of electro
gliding. Redditch is becoming q rival
Of Birmingham In the manufacture OF
pins, the ordinary common household
pin being supplemented by shawl and
scarfpIns with glass and steel heads.
About two tons weight OF pins OF al
sorts are made at Redd.teh weekly.

she takes the trouble 10 make one at all
that "it is so much more comforta-

sequences OF such a course. Could she
but realize that heI dress is an evil ex-
ample to her daughters, and one produc-
tive OF consequences that will reach far
beyond her own span of life that her
husband and sons cannot fail to draw
comparisons between her dress and that
OF the ladies they meet in other homes,
and that these comparisons cannot fail
TO decrease their respect for her, she
might be induced to give more attention
II her personal appearance. Not even
the burden of care and constant employ
ment can furnish = sufficient excuse for
careless personal habits. Few things
are more important to the well being of
family. There is an old saying TO the
effect that an untidy mother hiss dis

parents nor children may realize the
why OF wherefore OF it, yet there is al
ways lack OF respect and an IndiffeT-

responsibility for home neatress and

fail to insist upon the younger members
OF the family presenting themselves

neatly brushed hair, and orderly dress,

Of u Very Inquiring Mind.

One day we sat in q car seat on a
southern railroad behind pale, care
worn lady, who was talking to a little
boy. AS the little boy was OF a very
inquiring mind, and everything seemed
to attract his attention, / could not
hep listening to some of his questions.
''What is that, auntie I" the little boy
commenced pointing to stack of hay.
'Oh, that's hay, dear ;" ans wered the
careworn lady.
What is hay, auntie ?"
why hay, is hay, dear.''
But what is it made OF ?r
why, hay is made OF dirt and water
and air.

! "Oh, l don't know. I'd keep still,
Willie, that's a dear boy, auntie is
tired.'' -.-rr
After remaining quiet a moment
Willie broke out

did the moon lay 'em9"
Yes. guess so,'' replied the wicked
lady,
"Can the moon lay eggs, tooP'
II suppose so. Don't bother me-"
Another short silence, when Willie
broke out

Where ?''
Willie, sit down oD the seat and be
still or I'll shake you. Now, not an

And the lady pointed her finger Sharp
ly at the little boy, as if she were going
to stick it through him. IF she had
been wicked woman she would have

Stories Abont Women.

The New Orleans Times Democrat
nun who has lately been decorated with
the Cross of the Legion OF Honor for
forty years service in the army ambu-
lances, seems to be not only brave but
a merry woman. During a time OF
hard lighting IN Tonquin Domb fell
into an ambulance full of wounded
men. Sister Theresa seized the bomb
and carried it 10 a distance. When
she set it down 1t exploded. but, luck
lily, not till she had time to throw her
self fat on the ground. Her assistants
rushed up in terror and found her un-
conscious and covered with blood.
When she regained her senses she ut
tered her customary phrase, Its only
joke" an expression which has since
become her nick. name. At another
time she was tending a wounded man,
when che WAS struck by a passing
splinter from charge of metraiile, but
her quiet observation was merely as
usual, It's only ioke.'' At the cere-
mony of the decoration none OF the
customary formalities were omitted.
Tie General who conferred the title
cbeUdliere on the brave nun touched her
with his sword on both her shoulders,
and finally brushed her cheek with his
white mustaches.

law which was so bad it had to be
suspended in order to avert a general
disaster. He thought that too much

pivotal state. The republicans must
stop stalking everything on New York.

Climate and Cattle.

From the FARMER, st. Eaui. ''"
Ii it beH true that the warmer
climates favor reproduction in animal
life, it is certainly equally true that it is
10 the cold climate we must look for
the best quality in our domestic animals.
In Europe we do not find single breed
of beef or dairy cattle developed IN the
warm countries that can compare with
anyone of the numerous breeds develop
ed in the comparatively uncongenial
climate Of the British Islands and
Holland. This, too, in spite Of the fact
that the efforts of private breeders have
been much more literally seconded ny
government aid in the southern than in
northern countries. The experience OF
Europe scenes to be repeating itself on
this side Of the Atlantic The highest
quality Of both horses and cattle, at we'll
as of sheep and swine, is to be found in
the Northern states and Canada, and
even in the matter of horses, which
! have OF all domestic animals been the
most successfully bred in the southern
countries Of Europe, the Northern states
and Canada are taking the lead. These
facts are not new, but have been appar-
ent to persons of even limited observa-
! tiOn for years past, but they are facts
with which the farmers Of the Northwest
cannot be too strongly impressed or too
frequently reminded. The future of the
! liye stock industry Of America lies
largely in their hands. AS the science
Of feeding advances and we learn more
